What colour would
E. coli
appear after gram staining and why?
purple, because E.coli has a thick peptidoglycan layer
purple, because E.coli is a spherical (coccus) shape
red, because E.coli is a rod-shaped bacterium
red, because E.coli has a thin peptidoglycan layer/outer membrane
E.coli does not stain due to an abnormal cell wall composition
